A Manhattan with a scant bar spoon of ginger bitters is nice on a rainy night.
2 oz 100+ proof rye
1 oz neutral sweet vermouth (Antica or PdM is a waster)
1 scant bar spoon ginger bitters
Stir with ice in a mixing glass. Strain into a martini glass/Nick and Nora/Coupe.
Garnish with two brandied cherries.
